Can Notts County Supporters Trust really make a difference?
Supporter’s Trusts have had significant success at other clubs, most notably at Chesterfield and Bury where they have been instrumental in the survival of the football club. There are now in excess of eighty Trusts at football clubs up and down the country. Their involvement varies from having representation on the board of Directors to holding a financial stake in the club in a fair number of cases. Most importantly in all situations the Trust is consulted and seen as a factor in the decision making process and a direct communication link to the supporters. Already at Notts the administrator, Paul Finnity, has had discussions with the new Trust.
